Keith and Decia were very helpful particularly providing aids for my wifeâs limited mobility. It was great watching the birds, including woodpeckers, at the regularly topped up bird feeder. Enjoyed using the log fired Esse cooker although it did offer a few challenges. In the cooler months and given proper control of it I imagine it would be an interesting experience. It has to said however that we do âself caterâ, cooking most of our meals at the cottage. On that note for future visitors - the local butcher provides really good local produce and roasts on the Esse are delicious. Thank you Keith and Decia for a very relaxing holiday - just what we needed.
